DUB’S POEM

And so, AGAIN, another sleepless night, system suspended in fight or flight, medication- be they heavy or light -I CAN’T SHUT MY EYES

Through my mind sprint unhelpful lies, “You’re at cliff’s edge; JUMP - take the dive of all dives…” MINE is one of the indifferent lives: it won’t matter if it shall sustain

I don’t even CARE about the pain, the ‘feeling’ of such is meaningless, it’s inane, to disappear would be of zero loss or gain, it would be just an empty space

And this is not to say it’s a terrible place… It is FILLED with beauty, it is draped in LACE, but to locate an area, to obtain complace is unfailingly my particular war

There was a time in which I believed in the elsewhere and otherworldly only MY mind conceived, now, mentally, I bleeeeed, I seethe… red and fire consume my thoughts

Across my vision dance the absence of color shaded dots and inside my chest long-dead importance still ROTS, but atop my lap, loyalty feels, listens, and shares thoughts; a commiserating tiny beast

Five attributes are expressing the LEAST…

“Purr, purr, purrrrrr…” remains a creature comfort for me even IN this as I see frigid, rouge, dark black sea, she’s returned to me- Dub -time and timelessly -a familiar and true friend

I couldn’t care less of your opinion, though over animals, man has dominion, I love her so, I wouldn’t trade a dollar, a thousand, a billion… she has BEEN

From the needful kit to the fearless hunter she is now, if I could GUESS- she has made a vow -critter or not, I’ll ALWAYS give her a bow- to my feline, I appreciated you then and, oh, how I LOVE you NOW
